MacArthur did nothing wrong in the Korean War.

ASide from trying to convince Truman to start a nuclear war, but hey, haven't we all almost unleashed nuclear genocide on the world?

Zikten posted...

I didn't mean the ramifications so much as can we literally do it? Would be possible

Not really no. For the size of missile that he would be and is shooting at Ukraine, you would need in-theater anti-missile systems. Something like a ground based Phalanx or SAM system. For us to intercept it would need to be an ICBM realistically with what we have.

UnholyMudcrab posted...

At no point did Arthur MacArthur nearly cause a nuclear war, so he definitely has that up on his son, at least.

I remembered that tidbit after I posted, so, yeah, I'd agree with you there.

Was Lt. MacArthur also a glory hounding jack ass that was almost as much of an impediment to the war effort as an aid to it?

Lmao, the clown always going into hot check topics to go "respect women" makes a topic about creeping on a hot chick and gets banned. Serves him right.

Respect women.

If you can't make fun of a culture for bungling a land invasion of Afghanistan you can't make fun of like 60% of cultures.

It's more the US looked at the USSR and went "Hey, we can fuck up TWICE as bad" and then spent 20 years there AND left a shit load of equipment behind.

They spent 10 years in Afghanistan, where there is no winter.

Yeah, but as an American I don't get to mock them for anymore

hockeybub89 posted...

Remember when people said Russia would definitely win and anything else was Ukraine propaganda?

Yes, and on paper Russia should have won and turned this from a war into something like the US occupation of Iraq. Except no one counted on Russia having an army led by idiots.

DarkRoast posted...

Russia suddenly hauling ass out of Ukraine in the last couple days sure seems sussy

Their excuse would be "we need to get out before winter cuts our supply lines" I'm sure.

Which is stupid because Russia should have supply lines ready to handle the Russian Winter.

Another Florida Man made an underwater pistol out of a Glock to hunt lionfish.

Honestly, that one is sort of impressive since guns generally don't work underwater.

Tbf the second one looks generic as fuck for Ninja Turtles. Like they took a standard image and slapped the name on it.

does it still involve train models or is it all CGI now? lol

Neither. They went full CGI for a while, now it's all shitty flash animation.

This is what happens when you rely on Russia for your electricity

Saw on the news Germany is trying to get the nuclear plants they thought they didn't need back online as quickly as safely possible because they aren't buying Russian gas.

Though (Wano spoilers) he was kinda screwed either way. If Robin told him, he'd know that he'd have to go into Kaido's turf, and even then he'd have to somehow open the country's borders to unleash it

And of course, based on what we know of Crocodile's backstory, he had his dreams killed the last time he went to the New World, so it honestly would ahve been interesting to see how he'd reacted to finding out he'd have to go risk pissing off a totally different Yonko.

Though perhaps that's part of what the idea behind Baroque Works was. Quantity over Quality.

Fyi you can eat beef raw as long as it's high quality.

I mean, that's probably true given humans lasted long enough to develop cooking, but it probably tastes gross.

Giant_Aspirin posted...

burgers should be medium-well

Ground beef should always be well done. Steak however should never be well done. And if someone serves you medium rare chicken call the police.

Jeff_AKA_Snoopy posted...

I'm not even sure what he was going to gain. Sure he can get Robin to read about the Ponyglygh, but he put way too much on the line for very little reward.

The Ponyglyph explained where the massive battleship Pluton is. And it had the power to reshape continents, so, I'm fairly sure it's implied to be at least a one ship Buster Call. Which is an insane amount of fire power. Using it, yeah, as others have said, World Domination. Whatever happened in the Void Century is the reason the world of One Piece looks like it does. Probably up to and including the weirdly convenient geography for adventuring.

It's possible, but not 100% liquid water. The core would be other phases of water from the pressure.

This. It's possible to have a water giant, but you figure how bad the pressure is going down just 100 feet below sea level, then figure how huge a planet is. You'd have an upper atmosphere of water vapor clouds, deeper down you'd get liquid water, and further down you'd eventually hit some weird phase of ice or some sort of water that isn't physically possible on Earth, similar to how Jupiter and Saturn are theorized to have metallic hydrogen in the core.

Heineken14 posted...

Yeah, but we're talking about Donnie's lawyers.

I mean, honestly, if I was his lawyer, I'd be arguing he stole office supplies and the folders were empty.

Smashingpmkns posted...

Why even keep the empty folder? That's like leaving your driver's license in the cookie jar.

So, go check out average criminals, they're all usually dumb as shit. In Trump's case, I'd wager he was too cheap to throw away perfectly good folders.

Trumble posted...

doesn't even mean he can't be found legally liable in a civil trial, but criminal trials require proof beyond a reasonable doubt that he did it

The OJ Simpson Trial is a good example of this, he was acquitted in his criminal trial, and got utterly fucked by Nicole Brown's parents in the civil suit. Everyone's pretty positive he killed her and the guy she was with, but as far as the courts are concerned he did no such thing.

LightHawKnight posted...

Why? He literally stole top secret classified documents. What else could he use them for?

Right now all they have is solid proof he had the folders. A competent lawyer will demand proof that there was ever anything in said folders. It's that whole thing in the US legal system called "Beyond a reasonable doubt." The lawyer doesn't have to prove Trump innocent, he just has to make you doubt his guilt enough that you can't convict.

Spain didn't do anything, and Franco and Hitler hated each other. People don't realize that Axis powers were allies by consequence and not by mutual consent.

If I was Hitler I'd hate Franco too. Franco actually accomplished things.

LightHawKnight posted...

So its basically guaranteed that he sold info now

Not legally no. Legally all him having empty classified folders proves is that he has empty folders. Any competent lawyer will argue the prosecution needs to prove there was ever paperwork in them.

Sufferedphoneix posted...

Being antagonistic tends to make people dig their heels in and refuse to consider your points. So if all you care about is being right go ahead. If you are actually trying to change your mind you aren't doing yourself any favors

Also, in a lot of the more polarized debates like abortion or gun control, you really shouldn't be debating to change the other person's mind, because you aren't going to. You should be debating on the premise that there are probably people on the fence observing the debate. If all you've got is personal attacks, well, it makes your entire argument look weak and you could easily lose people to the other side of the debate.

its alright guys just ban the sale of new petrol cars by 2035 (still require an exception for used petrol cars though of course) and you'll stop climate change

And then go ahead and tell people they can't charge the electric cars they had to buy because the electric grid is too shit to handle it.

The Walmart I work at has stopped hiring and cut hours. We have enough cashiers today for maybe two or three registers plus two people overseeing the two self checks. Which is gonna be hell.

Roughly the same at mine, don't worry they'll spend 20 minutes every time lines get bad figuring out they have no floor associates to relieve the pressure either.

TyVulpine posted...

thats Wal-Marts policy. Theyre more concerned with having self-checkout open than actual people operated lanes.

That's because on paper it's cheaper to have a 20 or less open with tobbacco plus (technically) 2 people manning self check than it is to have a handful of registers running.

This ignores the fact that self checks are a haven for people stealing, they just pretend to scan shit.

Better than them being used to wish for a pair of panties.

That just barely scrapes a pass from me because it was a spur of the moment thing to stop a villian from getting his wish. Still a dumbass wish and I recall we got multiple episodes of a pig wearing panties on his head out of it...

I thought Epic was the company that had the problem, Twitch approved her to participate according to the clip in the original post.

Yeah but after she tweeted about it Twitch banned her.

But don't worry, you can still watch Amouranth sleep or whatever lazy content she puts out for simps now

IronWolf87 posted...

That's lame. I don't see how that's any worse than the hot tub/bikini streaming.

Exactly. Meanwhile Amouranth can be basically a stripper who I don't think I've ever seen stream a game. Hell, once I was on Twitch and it thought I'd be interested in seeing a stream of her fucking sleeping. No Twitch, I want actual content.

Lil_Bit83 posted...

I could understand if she was involved in child porn or something equally as horrifying. But if it's just plain old porn that doesn't involve minors/animals then what's the issue?

Puritans like having things to bitch about and imposing their views on other.

So, Twitch/Epic is free to tell people they can't participate, but how the hell did they not know she was in porn until an hour before the event. 0 reason for her getting told this at next to the last minute.

Thats unrealistic to assume every parent is aware of how to do that too

That's their failure as parents. They have a responsibility to monitor the media that their kids consume. It is not the Government's job, or Twitch, or Epic Games. It is the parents' job, for them to say anything else is negligent on their part.

I used to do that a LOT in high school. My right hand has a larger middle knuckle than the left, and you know how boxers have a glass jaw? Well for a long while I had a glass hand. I've calmed down enough that I haven't figured out if I still do.
